using up currants, please help!

[Helenmcnamara]

So I kind of messed up at Christmas and have 2kg (ha ha!) of currants left from making mincemeat, christmas cake, Christmas pudding. I really want to get them used up, and am just making endless currant biscuits/cookies and fruit loaf. Any ideas- sweet, savoury all welcomed!

Simnel Cake for Easter? Rock cakes? Lamb tagine/other middle eastern savoury dishes.

Fly pie and Eccles cakes

You could make 2016's mincemeat early. It will keep.

There is a nice Ottolenghi receipe that is supposed to use barberries but you can use currents instead, which I do and it works. Just combine basmati rice cooked with saffron, handfulls of dill, tarragon and chervil, chopped pistachios and the lemon soaked currants. It is nice alone or as a side for chicken, turkey etc.

Oops, sorry about my spellings and that this is in cakes and bakes and my suggestion was neither

Welsh cakes

Sprinkle some in your porridge every day.

Coronation Chicken? With curried Mayo, chicken and currants, I think sultana's are usually used but...
